The Department of Veterans Affairs is issuing a firm‑fixed‑price solicitation (RFQ 36C26226Q0596) for commercial products or services on a “brand‑name or equal” basis. Offerors must submit a written quote (maximum 15 pages, pricing schedule excluded) by 4:00 PM PST on April 13, 2026 to the email address on the SF‑1449 cover page. All quotes must be accompanied by a SAM registration (active before award) and must provide clear, compelling evidence that any equal‑to items meet every salient characteristic listed in Section B.4. Technical acceptability is a binary “acceptable/unacceptable” determination; the contract will be awarded to the responsible offeror whose offer is most advantageous, considering price and the required characteristics. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions, waive minor irregularities, or accept a non‑lowest offer in the public interest. The solicitation is restricted to small‑business participants (HubZone, Service‑Disabled Veteran‑Owned, Women‑Owned, EDWOSB) as indicated in the solicitation data, with the applicable NAICS code and size standard noted on the first sheet. Questions must be submitted via email by 4:00 PM PST on April 10, 2026. All other requirements—including the need for a firm‑fixed‑price, compliance with FAR clauses 52.212‑1, ‑2, ‑3, ‑4, and ‑5, and the flow‑down of clause 52.247‑64—are incorporated by reference. Failure to meet the deadline or SAM registration will result in rejection.
